King Charles maintains a close relationship with his grandchildren Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, but his connection with his U.S.-based grandchildren, Prince Archie and
Princess Lilibet, is reportedly non-existent due to the distance and ongoing tensions with his son, Prince Harry.
Harry has expressed serious concerns about security for his family during visits to the UK, stating that he will not bring Meghan Markle and their
children without adequate protection, and while he has asked King Charles for help, the king appears unable to meet these demands. This security issue has become a focal point in the ongoing feud between
Harry and Charles, especially after the court denied Harry’s legal requests for state-funded security. The emotional toll on King Charles is significant, as he feels heartbroken about not seeing Archie and Lilibet, leading him to long for a meaningful
relationship with them, similar to what he shares with Prince William’s children. Despite the challenges, Charles remains hopeful for
reconciliation, motivated by his desire to connect with his grandchildren and the encouragement of Queen Camilla to mend family ties.
